Risk of Rain Lore - Who is the False Son?

A short video explaining the False Son in Risk of Rain 2's upcoming DLC, Seekers of the Storm.

[@thegrovetender]

Trying something new with these shorts, let me know what you think!

[@Max-db3ws]

Woah dude no way! These shorts are so fun and cool!

[@Stupidityenthusiast]

And when we needed him most, he returned

[@adon155]

Didn't notice the person making these shorts was the same as the one making those lore vids. Love them, and would also be happy to see more long form vids

[@justalizard-qx2lz]

nice

[@zackdiazabiblio9592]

These are really good!

[@brennanconover8482]

I always forget that it's a dlc and not a sequel so whenever I hear "mithrix trapped on the moon" I think "wait so did we not run his fade?'

[@Palpinator225]

This happened before we did that

[@ohxvvt]

Nah he caught them hands but we didn't know he was a dead beat uncle before it all went down

[@chipman1589]

Nah that fade got ran to the dirt

[@loermansw]

what the hell is "run his fade"? how does zoomer slang keep evolving this fast I can't even keep up anymore

[@SUPERLEAF026]

It's very strange that the literal god ruling this planet since the dawn of time was killed by silly astronauts in just 10 minutes and 23 seconds.

[@roboglobe6242]

Silly astronauts w skillz

[@johnjohnson7425]

​@@roboglobe6242skills and a couple ukuleles

[@RavenGamingOverLord]

It wasn’t a easy fight for the astronauts

[@markkarl2488]

I mean, it never was stated that Providence or Mithrix are invincible. Also silly astronauts are skilled.

[@ShadowNemesis575]

​@RavenGamingOverLord that's a matter of perspective. A risk of rain vet can absolutely obliterate the gods

[@Combatcoin]

I love the idea of the false son. Cant wait for the dlc.

[@FlowotheFlower]

DLC:Gets leaked

[@V2Plushi]

@@FlowotheFlower DLC: gets released in a week.

[@FlowotheFlower]

@@Combatcoin I know me happy

[@chancecollins6784]

oh you poor soul, its finally out. The bugs that came with this patch is arguably bigger then the content... Its a good dlc, just not finished id say.

[@ambersinghdreamybull]

@@chancecollins6784 the false son is very dissapointing. Chef aswell....wont even mention all the bugs....not buying this until they patch and hopefully improve things

[@Guntshot]

I like the idea of someone who basically feels all the emotions of the mainplayers in the ror lore and says “this shit is fucked, i’ll be the one to wipe the slate clean”

[@deux_cents]

Lore’s getting some kind of mythology vibe, I love it

[@PolrisTired]

Already had a lot of mythology since the beginning of risk of rain with Providence and Mythrix both being primordial beings of creation and both being worshipped

[@the_real_skateboard]

i mean, the brothers are effectively gods so it’d make sense for this to be mythology-like

[@sweetinvictus654]

if you collect the new gelded aspect with false son, he becomes golden again. it actually looks really nice and close to the version we saw early in the teasers.

[@cringelord777]

i felt bad before, but now i feel REALLY bad killing things

[@MaddixCuhming]

Ok thank actually makes a lot of sense. Risk of rain has some wonderful and dreadful lore. Such sadness from this god like family

[@endmylife5344]

All because the player got a little silly

[@techno952]

THE KING RETURNS

[@totallynotpaul6211]

Created in the image of Providence, given life by Aurelionite, and augmented by Mithrix 🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥

[@user-ls4wv5cq8w]

Video is cool and knowing that this vid is like 7 month old seeing a model of false son from seekers of the storm is unimaginable because it was a secret from everyone

[@teapurest5989]

I WOULD LOVE TO SEE MORE OF ROR LORE IM SO INVESTED IV WATCHED YOUR LORE VIDEO HUNDREDS OF TIMES I LOVE THIS GAME SO MUCH

[@ncrranger6327]

Minos Prime has really changed since his defeat with v1

[@captainapac]

Wooo!!! Love to see you back!

[@kylelemelin1595]

More please, love your content!

[@chomperwithcheesecake]

And finally, made with the intended fps mechanics and glitches of Gearbox

[@nebulous9280]

It's just a funny roguelike, you don't have to make the lore that deep The Lore: Fr tho RoR lore is surprisingly deep for a game that is 100% gameplay driven. The only story we actually get is intro cutscenes, Providence and Mithrix's dialogue, and a boatload of item and enemy descriptions in the logbook after the fact. And most of those item descriptions aren't even related to the lore.

[@ElGoorg]

holy crap, youre back! just some feedback, a lot of the text is blocked by the youtube shorts UI overlay. i'd raise up the text or re-position it entirely. obviously, it's not life or death. it does make it easier to digest though!

[@Uraniummortal]

Love these lore explanations videos

[@Online_Andrew]

Bro I've been binging your content. So so sooo well done! 👍

[@vesteddrop1300]

Dude tysm I've been trying to understand this since it came out, but to no success. Can't wait for this dlc.

[@Max-db3ws]

I didnt even listen to what you were talking about i just got so excited hearing your voice 🤤

[@rival8177]

bro ur weird

[@bobbeii]

@@rival8177 let him cook rq

[@khuhruzhsvethmeorv8318]

Welcome back man! Hope you're intending to do some long form lore videos as well as these shorts!

[@Ursling]

Wow this makes a lot of sense! Thank you!

[@Anto_85571]

Love the concept that were kinda fighting Providence again.

[@sIsReal]

This game has godlike music, lore, and gameplay. Literally perfect

[@JohnBlank-em6lq]

Oh my God I cant wait for this dlc

[@nahfr.]

Ahhh so thats why aurelionite betrays us once we go to fight him

[@aiwen_v2]

This aged... uh... aged...

[@shadboi8927]

Bad? No, this is lore, not gameplay xd

[@acamera367]

I wonder if there was any Lemurians who worshipped the ROR1 commando. As a symbol of absolute power?

[@dawnwulf]

Well damn didnt know this game had such deep lore

[@TheJ.JonahJameson]

So... we all agree he should be in the next one yeah? Its so perfect

[@morgboat744]

gives me Nameless King vibes for some reason, god i’m so hyped for this DLC

[@lordmpfree4564]

If this won't be some dark souls level boss fight then I don't want it

[@ScufMoment]

and also the best chr in the game

[@skyfallen2775]

I could hear this cute soft spoken British dude talk about anything and I’ll listen to it for an hour of it Fr

[@Hiro_cor]

Isnt mithrix the creator of the lunar chimera's?

[@FlowotheFlower]

Mithrix as vultures

[@thegrovetender]

He is, but I'm not sure what that has to do with this video.

[@Hiro_cor]

​@thegrovetender just giving some info bout em. Also he's pretty buffed when he steals your void items n stuff

[@huntress084]

HELL YEAH MORE GROVETENDER!!!!!

[@xurkit7]

no way all this happpened because mithrix threw a worm in a pond thing

[@KerchouniAbderrahim]

this game has ...LORE!!!!!!🤯 now im more interested

[@kokichikuncookie4764]

Pretty cool to know

[@jancekal1360]

Providence died? Lets go mine Uelibloom then

[@ImInYourWalls31]

So this means the False Son (Survivor Version) has another mix that contains The Survivors' will to escape?

[@canadianbren4239]

they may of screwed up the gameplay with the dlc, but honestly that lore is pretty fire

[@ukaszanioowski9722]

"you touch it!" "... no, you touch it"

[@snowtale7776]

I didn’t get a thing, but it sounds extremely cool

[@HyperfixationWizard]

Who's your favorite Risk of Rain villain? Providence, Bulwark of the Soy Mithrix, King of Cringe or The Edgy Son

[@Wyrmixx]

Here I thought the false son IS Aurelionite

[@williamswan5247]

I can’t wait to see what happens if you bring Aurelionite to his fight.

[@intriguinglyenigmatic1743]

I think it would be cool if they straight up added providence to ror2 as well and make jt an alternate portal like voidling and then you can "escape" on a ship and get "relaunched" back to the planet to fight mithrix.

[@Kimura.Enjoyer]

any plans for a full video for the DLC?

[@rainworldmonk]

who else was watching rw stuff and got recommended this

[@kanseidorifto2430]

And now I have found yet another to which I must put the sword to :3

[@shaun10767]

I wish the false son had his og skin and kept the sword and had better animations

[@atlaskiller3245]

''so SHE begins to use her powers" AURELIONITE IS SHE??????????????

[@jblack3830]

So basically, a really scary enemy.

[@Magnusthepapa]

I do loke how, despite being vengeful towards their creators, aurelionite is still kind and nice to lemurians and such, in many ways, aurelionite is almost like a son to Providence😊

[@mopkey2409]

I just hope hes playable

[@GangurEXE]

Bro was *not* disappointed

[@gengarultimate]

1 more day

[@spirtheperson]

i thought it was the followers build a statue of providence then aurelionite gives the statue life and providence is reborn then mythix's followers kill them but the statue gets reborn and gets revenge

[@ragnarokoblivion7161]

We got risk of rain lore before gta 6

[@aquawolfx8715]

When everything is going just fine, and then some &$$ 🕳️ comes along and corrupts the Godly being

[@ageofblight754]

I fully believe the false son is Providence but because of mithrax he is stuck on that world “aka” dead and maybe false son is a meaning from mithrax meaning False sun like false hope

[@DarlexGardenWarden]

I think the Corruption was an accident and they just wanted to kill False son

[@chronodis]

im shocked people cared about the DLC enough to look at the lore

[@Ban-zx9se]

What's the comic book looking background footage at the beginning?

[@elvhadarei4521]

Auri is the main protagonist, change my mind.

[@mrbearjangles8600]

Aurelionite is far from perfect, more just powerful and untamed.

[@Blades-X]

I did not know that … is there a mod where i can play as the false son cause fr though man he sounds so op with the combo of 3 main characters in the game

[@kylzepolaczkowaty2197]

THIS GAME HAS LORE!?

[@hardboiledchildren6126]

Most games do

[@jamesrichardson6144]

Sooo, a rich bodybuilder child that uses steroids who’s sibling went flat broke when they moved out and has to live with them

[@CiuccioeCorraz]

Cant wait for new dlc info to drop. Be sure to ride the hype wave grovetendie, I love your content!

[@lordofdarkness321]

Okay so basically Aurelionite is a canonical MILF. Got it

[@isobelclaire9496]

😮 holy fuck its the grovetender

[@bighamgrizles]

how you gonna just call me the false son like that

[@DrStryde]

HE'S BACK?

[@nullvoid4193]

so what you're telling me is he's gonna be the hardest boss.

[@nahfr.]

You were infact correct

[@LeMouaitte]

W lore

[@RottenHeretic]

All because of some dudes spicy ukulele

[@mcorqeneral886]

If only we knew how fucked the game would get 😢

[@gambitsheild9814]

But don't you purify the false son with the Aurelionite seed? Also why does she fight you if you have the seed while you are fighting the false son?

[@StockyCoder]

oh! nice

[@Ton_____]

Who made Mithrix and Providence then, is it in the lore?

[@pikator9153]

So , he can be healed ? Hmmm perhaps he will be one of the new survivor

[@Carseatt]

such a shame the dlc is no good, cuz the lore is great!

[@gear8552]

Is it just me or does it look like there is a void item getting in his chest? Not the cauldron but the other one.

[@monotonous6195]

2 dads 1 mommy lol

[@Chowsz]

I dislike that the followers attacked the false son, as they had no reason too, or connections with mithrix.

[@thegrovetender]

I'm not sure what you mean. They're followers of Mithrix listening to his orders through the beads of fealty.

[@disguisedhat9398]

i think lunar items will have 2 times the effect

[@dariodealmeidaasensio]

Did the dlc come out already?

[@drpj3230]

why tf is false sons alt skin not his og gold look wtf

[@FrostRare]

Risk of rain 3 final boss?

[@2viny713]

cool

[@ninjazilla]

Wait when did they show the in game model? Musta missed it

[@drakootherat1735]

What was that ingame model you showed

[@Shhhhh183]

Pretty sure it can be found in a dev log from gearbox.

[@BungaUnga111]

Where can i see this comic.

[@barackobreezy]

all the images in the video are from the trailer for seekers of the storm i think

[@Concerned_Custodian]

Once again mithrix ruins EVERYTHING

[@doubt3430]

wait the aurelionite is a woman?
